It's simple; A great reader needs to have an extensive vocabulary! So on this page, we are going to increase our vocabularies as a group. As we read books, it's also extremely important to be able to discuss our characters traits (qualities or personalities) when reading. When a reader is capable of this skill, they are displaying EXCELLENT comprehension skills! If you want extra credit you can look up definitions of some of these unfamiliar words and post them in the discussion board under the subject "Vocabulary." For those of us interested, each definition will be worth extra credit for the first trimester!
